WIP: ToadStory - something to keep you busy during zoom calls

[SimponGoril]

Hi all,
just showing off another project. I really wanted to get into my NextJS portfolio, but coding in ExcaliburJS is just more fun 😄. Due to time constraints (taking care of small puppy) I needed to scale down and just make something simple. I am using custom camera strategy to offset the view of the player - works like a charm! hold down mouse button to jump. the longer you hold it, the higher you reach! It is also playable on mobiles.

Play it here

Source code coming soon!

@SimponGoril thanks for sharing! I'm glad you're enjoying Excalibur!

You've made a very convincing frog, the look and feel are really good!

My record so far is 6 platforms!

thanks! you can see the code here. nothing too fancy 😄

class CustomCamera implements CameraStrategy<Actor> {
    target: Actor
    action: (target: Actor, camera: Camera, engine: Engine, delta: number) => Vector = 
        (target: Actor, camera: Camera, engine: Engine, delta: number) => {
            return vec(target.pos.x + engine.halfCanvasWidth / 4, engine.halfDrawHeight)
        }
    
        constructor(actor) {
            this.target = actor
        }
    }
